Disinfection:

  • This kind of method is really effective, but it does not solve the whole problem, that is, if you spend disinfection, the next step that should follow this is to improve waterproofing and ventilation.
  • To carry out this operation you will have to free the basement from all over.

If you only decided to build your basement, and are afraid to do something wrong, so that the mold does not attacked this room, it is better to immediately worry about proper waterproofing, because this factor is sometimes decisive in the absence of mold. Do not forget that it is necessary to ensure waterproofing in the basement, both outside and from the inside.

Outside, you must ensure that the drains pipes are derived as expected, as well as the slopes on the porch were also made, otherwise there can be no good waterproofing, even talk can not be.

Inside, too, everything should be done qualitatively:

  • The next stage - we close all deformations on the walls, slots between the ceiling and floor, etc.
  • When all surfaces in the basement are smooth and without any deformations, now you can proceed to process. For these purposes, antifungal agents are often used, which will be reduced by times the likelihood of molds in the basement.
  • Do not forget that another reason for the appearance of the troubles in the basement is the flooring or absence of its absence. It is for this reason that it is necessary to regularly monitor the condition of such a coating:
  • If the gaps appeared - immediately smeared them
  • If there are some deformations on the floor - promptly get rid of this trouble

In order for moisture to be formed on the floor, it is desirable to process the coating with a clay (one can also use other materials of moisture-resistant type for these purposes).
